Pendulum Swings - (4229)

We can observe that there are many pendulum swings in our life. When we are swinging on the pendulum, it is because we have missed or ignored our balance point.


When we are at our balance point we are stable and we don't swing on the pendulum.


We can be swinging on a pendulum in so many things, in so many areas of life, each swinging on their own particular pendulum, each with their own rhythm and magnitude of swing.


Remember the balance point is relative. It is relative to our points of reference. Which for us is the Being, the work and the path.


Our behaviour and well being is subject to these natural laws. To ignore the natural laws is always to bring pain to our lives.


To be swinging on the pendulum is frankly painful. To be at balance is sweet, peaceful and happy. 


The mind ignores natural laws and specialises with its ideas, plans and desires at passing over these nautural laws. Thus bringing about our own unhappiness.


We have to know our points of reference and make the choice that is the will of the Being in us. We find that will easily when we make some wrong choices and something inside of us feels very uncomfortable.


The key about the law of pendulum is that we initiate its swing when we allow some "I" in us or some other factor to offset us from the nature of our reference points. For example, we substitute an activity of sacrifice for one of less or very little sacrifice. Or if we are within our reference points we can swing on the pendulum when we allow an "I" to push more than or withdraw more than our nature can assimilate or has been assimilating. For example, ambition makes us to meditate three hours when we only do one and a half, then we will swing on the pendulum and soon we will be doing 10 minutes of meditation.

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...

The Divine Mother is there when we Comprehend - (5780)

A very wonderful instructor gave a talk on Koradi Radio a few days ago and he said something that really impacted. He said that when we comprehend something, our Divine Mother is present right in that moment of comprehension. Especially if it is do with an "I" we are working on. He went on to say that he knows that She is there when we comprehend something. This for me was marvellous, because I have felt the same, though I was never fully sure. This is great news when we want to build a connection to our Divine Mother and doubt when is present. We can know that She is present when we are trying to comprehend. I feel that She really wants us to comprehend the "I" and further more She helps us to comprehend. We can truly ask for Her help to comprehend something and the help will come in such a natural way that we will tend to overlook it.   She is better than Google...  End (5780).
